On July 30, 2025, I stopped in your Scheels store in Bismarck looking for a pair of Keen shoes,…read morewhich I purchased from you store may time before. I was approached by a sales associate and I told him that I was looking a new pair of Keens shoes. I indicated that I require a shoe with a wide width, and then indicated if the display does not indicate wide widths we don't have them. I then asked he could please check your store to if by any chance you might a pair on the shelves. He told me if they are not indicated come in a wide width you don't have any on hand. I then asked if could order a pair me on and have sent to my house as on some my prior purchases of this brand of shoe, his response was that was to online and look for what I wanted and order them myself. It appear if my sale was not going to be a quick sale or if was not one the youths purchasing back to school shoes, he was not interested in helping me. Now we are told to support our local businesses, but if this the kind of service we are going receive we might just well go the big box stores.

This is not the 1st time the manager gave very poor customer service! Also when dealing with this matter by phone he continued to raise his voice until he said what he wanted with out finishing listening to my wife about the situation, then threatened my wife and hung up (side note here, that is a Federal punishable crime ) Also when confronted in the store about a previous item he yelled and carried on until we got what we came in for ( a defective item) A person spends over $2100.00 in a weeks time and gets treated like this makes for a very good reason not to support a local downtown business. I have had far better treatment from big box stores for way less money spent. As someone else said...con artist!!! No worries, we will not be back along with several other potential customers. And by the way manager....quit threatening everyone involved, it just makes my review stronger, I hope you are happy with yourself messing with a former customer having multiple disabilities and multiple people witnessing your behavior.

**June 2025: Thursday Afternoon Visit**…read more This is a pretty large charity shop that carries a good assortment of pretty much everything. I do think the items here tend to lean more conservative/vintage etc but there are surely gems to be found. During my visit there was a sale for 50% off Linens which was kind of crazy because their original price is already really affordable. I was looking for towels/blankets to help cushion some my heavier and more fragile purchases that I made and I picked up the three hand knitted blankets for $6. I can't even get yarn for $6 let alone have a finished product. This was definitely a more sustainable way to ensure my fragile souvenirs could get back home safely and I think was cheaper than buying bubble wrap. Prices in this shop are inexpensive compared to California Thrift shops so I think it's worth a look!

The clothing is reasonably priced and the quality is similar to Forever 21/Charlotte Russe with some pieces that are slightly higher quality. The accessories are affordable and chic. There is a small selection of shoes and a nice variety of scarves, headbands, and gloves that are affordable and priced appropriately. The jewelry is trendy and cute, but similar pieces can be found elsewhere for cheaper prices. Service is warm, friendly, and helpful. Thank you Kittson for coming to Bismarck! I am excited that my hometown is finally expanding the women's boutique clothing scene to provide more unique finds for women! Note: This shop is open Wed-Fri, 11-7 and Saturday 11-5.
